Answer:

[tex]x=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem you  must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. You have that the quadratic formula is:

[tex]x=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

2. To solve the quadratic equation you must substitute the values. So, you have that:

[tex]a=8\\b=-8\\c=2[/tex]

Then you have:

 [tex]x=\frac{-(-8)+/-\sqrt{(-8)^{2}-4(8)(2)}}{2(8)}[/tex]

3. Therefore, you obtain the following result:

[tex]x=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]


Answer:

x=0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is :

8x²-8x+2=0

ax²+bx+c = 0 is general quadratic equation.

x = (-b±√b²-4ac) / 2a is quadratic formula to find solution of quadratic equation.

comparing general equation with quadratic equation,we get

a = 8, b= -8 and c = 2

putting above values in quadratic formula, we get

x = (-(-8)±√(-8)²-4(8)(2)) / 2(8)

x = (8±√64-64) /16

x = (8±√0) / 16

x = (8±0) / 16

x = 8/16

x = 1/2

x =0.5 is solution of 8x²-8x+2= 0.
